What did Neil Armstrong remarked abouth earth when he set foot on the moon?

Answer 1

As others mentioned, Neil Armstrong's first words on the Moon were, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

If you read that closely, the phrase seems a little contradictory. That's because Neil Armstrong meant to say, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." It took him a long time to accept that he'd actually ommitted the 'a'.

--But he knew what he said. "There must be an 'a', " Mr. Armstrong says of the event in the 1986 book Chariots for Apollo. "I rehearsed it that way. I meant it that way. And I'm sure I said it that way."

Then the Grumman representative, Tommy Attridge, put on a commemorative 45-rpm recording of the flight. No matter what speed they played it at, there was no "a".

According to the authors, Mr. Armstrong sighed, "Damn, I really did it. I blew the first words on the moon, didn't I?" --

Flubbing his line is a little understandable, since he'd been up for 24 hours straight. Originally, the astronauts were supposed to sleep in the lunar lander to rest up for the first excursion on the surface of the Moon. Right .... like they'd really be able to sleep when they're so close to being the first humans to set foot on the Moon. The astronauts argued for an immediate trip outside and, considering the likelihood they would actually get much sleep, NASA gave in.

In any event, most people understand what he meant, since it wouldn't make sense to say it was both a small step for man (generically) and a giant leap for man (generically).

Answer 2

1: There are no pictures of Neil Armstrong on the Moon in which you can see his helmet visor, let alone any reflections in it. There are plenty of pictures, however, of Buzz Aldrin. This is because Armstrong had the camera for most of the time on the lunar surface. 2: There are NO pictures that show reflections of more than one person in the visor. I have seen the entire photographic record from Apollo 11, so I know whereof I speak. There are reflections of other objects such as the flag and the solar wind experiment, along with the other astronaut, but no genuine picture shows any such reflection as you are describing. 3: The flag does not wave. Seriously, think about it. With no air, what would happen to the flag? It would hang limply, looking a bit crap. So the flag had a rod sewn across the top to hold it out precisely because it WON'T wave in the vacuum. It was scrunched up for several days before being deployed on the Moon, so it has creases in it just like your shirts have if you don't hang them and iron them. If you look at the video the flag only ever moves when an astronaut moves it. At other times it is totally static, which is impossible UNLESS it is a vacuum. So yes, Armstrong really did set foot on the Moon, along with Buzz Aldrin.
